La aplicación de sistemas de información geográfica al manejo de recursos naturales y del medio ambiente ha sido bien catalogada dentro de la literatura internacional. Estos sistemas están diseñados para el análisis de datos que están geográfica y espacialmente referenciados, lo que...

Deforestation in Bolivia has increased considerably during the last few decades, which causes carbon dioxide emissions, biodiversity loss, changes to the hydrologic cycle, among others. This study pretends to estimate the impacts and costs of that deforestation. Since each variablehas its own...

Continued growth of agricultural output requires maintenance of the productive capacity of land through time. This paper analizes the linkages between firm size, land tenure and adoption of a soil conservation practice (no-tillage technology). Representative microeconomic data of the principal...

Este documento de investigación estima las emisiones netas de carbono provenientes del cambio en el uso de tierra en Bolivia durante los periodos 1990 - 2000 y 2000 - 2010 utilizando un modelo de contabilidad de carbono que incluye deforestación, degradación de bosques, regeneración de...

Potato is one of the most important crops for food security in Bolivia. In the Bolivian Altiplano, most of the agricultural systems are based on this crop. However, national yields are the lowest in the region (5.7 Tn ha-1 ), and agricultural systems are highly vulnerable to the impacts of...

Las altas concentraciones de gases de efecto invernadero, específicamente CO2, han sido señaladas como la principal causa del cambio climático. La adopción de prácticas agrícolas capaces de incrementar el contenido de carbono en el suelo, ha sido propuesta como una estrategia de bajo costo...
